Abstract: In this paper experimental results of sorption kinetics of a binary mixture of
n-alkane vapours (n-hexane, n-heptane) in a stream of carrier gas (nitrogen)
on synthetic zeolite in a continuous gradientless reactor are presented. The
properties of the laboratory reactor (adsorber) used have been tested by the
residence time distribution function. The concentration of the gas adsorptive
has been measured by analytical method using flame ionization detector
together with a digital integrator. A method of estimation of the mass of the
components on the adsorbent and the kinetics of the isothermal sorption of
three kinds of binary mixtures with constant ratio of partial pressures of the
adsorptive components is described. The adsorption rate of the components is
also related to the degree of saturation of the adsorbent surface.
